THE BOOM.
1t Is Liable to Extend to Improved
Property.

Properly.
There were no very startling develop
ments in the boom yesterday, al
though there was the same feverish feel
ing which prevailed so extensively on
Monday. In regard to heavy sales as
stated in yesterday mornings issue of
The LEADER, negotiations are in progress
which will result undoubtedly in several
of them. THE LEADER, however, does
not feel called upon to publish everything
which parties may be contemplating until
a point is reached when such publication
would be in order. Neither does it pro-
pose to give a statement of the substance
of every rumor which may be floating
about the streets. for, in most instances,
they have but little or no foundation and
to publish them would be only to mis-
lead people who desire to know what the
facts are and let rumors take care of
themselves.
Several sales were made yesterday, but
1t is not necessary to make specific men
ton of them, for it is taken for granted
that people are aware of the fact that
town lot property is being bought and
sold on every hand, and are not specially
interested in who the g%rantors and pur-
chasers are.
Several deeds were filed for record yes
terday. and below we give a list Of those
received at the county clerks Office up to
a reasonably late hour in the afternoon:

pose of making good on the records the

1t most not be supposed hat the deeds
which are filed for record each day show
all of the sales of that particular day, for
IN most cases they show but u small por-
ton of them. 1t frequently happens that
deeds are not filed for weeks, and some
times not for months and even years, for
while an unrecorded deed is not good
against third parties, it is, of course, alb
s%olutely binding between the seller and
the purchaser
There were some indications of the fact
yesterday that the boom was about to ex-
tend to improved property and even to
fine blocks and residences. In two or
three instances real estate men from
abroad we're looking through and around
some of the finest blocks in the city, and
1t was stated (as a and here
given as such that one or two sales
of desirable property on Sixteenth street,
between Feguson and Hill streets. are
about to be made.
There are not only real estate and
moneyed men here from Denver, Lin
coin, Omaha and Crete, but from other
points also, and in addition thereto there
are parties in Cheyenne no. only
in the interests of the Burlington
& Missouri, but of the North
western. That these parties are here for
the purpose Of taking steps in the inter
ests of these two railroads is a fact well
known to a few. More will be known
and more can be stated in a very short
time. In the meantime. a contract for
the construction of $50 miles of the Bur-
lington & Missouri branch which is to
come to Cheyenne has already been let
and that it will reach Cheyenne during
the coming season there appears to be
but little doubt.
1t should be explained here that the
branch of the Burlington X Missouri,
which is tending toward Cheyenne, starts
from a point in Nebraska more the 200
miles southeast of this city, and that the
long looked for outlet via the Burlington
& Missouri. which it was supposed would
come from its main line from the south is
not coming from that direction at all. but
from the southeast.
